Monday seems to be money day today. So rather than fight the feeling, let’s just roll with that theme today. One of the developments over the course of establishing the 53-man roster was the neck and neck competition between long-time LA Rams punter Johnny Hekker and 2021 signed star punter Corey Bojorquez. The competition was not just about two solid starting punters, but the fact that Bojorquez could match Hekker on the field at a fraction of the cost.

While Johnny Hekker remained in quarantine, Bojorquez put up one of the best punting displays seen in 2021 against the Denver Broncos.
